• Reliable and on time: enjoy the excellent quality of our worldwide supply chain.

Robotic milking with the new Lely Astronaut A4; the natural way of milking...The new Lely Astronaut A4 milking robot guarantees the highest achievable milk quality and comfort for the

cow. The robot arm is a well proven unique concept; servo controlled actuators position the arm underneath

the cow and control the entire milking process. The Festo positioning solutions provide quick accurate

positioning of the robotic milking heads and eliminate unnecessary arm movements, which is much gentler

for the cow and allows for the fastest possible attachment for all cow types.

Cooling and lubricating

Application examples of process and media valves

Coolant and refrigerant in industrial cooling installations or production machines must do their duty reliably and supply the installations with gases, raw water, lubricants or cooling oils.

Preferred media valve: VZWM

Other media and process valves: VZXF, VZQA, VAPB

Other media and process valves: VZXF, VZQA

Washing and cleaning

Preferred media valve: 2- or 3-way ball valve drive unit VAPB

In the manufacture of semi- conductor devices, after the silicon wafers are diced they require thorough cleaning. The cleaning medium, usually process water or ultrapure water, is conducted through the lances into the channels of the carrier beam. In these recesses, the water cleans the individual wafers evenly over the whole surface.

Application: for cleaning machines in the manufacturing process of semiconductors.

Media: Wide range of cleaning fluids, gases and liquids.

Other media and process valves: VAPB

Other media and process valves: VZXF, VAPB

SterilizingSterilization by steam is common in many different industries with hygienic requirements. This means that the media valves used must meet demanding requirements. They must withstand high temperatures and high pressures and function reliably.

Application: in sterilizers.

Media: Steam.

Preferred media valve: Angle seat valve VZXF in stainless steel design.

Dosing, mixing and filling

For the control of material flows such as granulates, liquids containing solids, and highly viscous and abrasive media. Ideal, for example, for filling in relevant machines.

Application: Ideal for filling applications and available with industrial or FDA compliant materials.

Media: Granulates, powders, neutral gases and liquids.

Preferred media valve:VZQA – no flow resistance, no blockages.
